Not really sure what it is that I need for this but i'm looking for some songs for basketball tournment,

I guess that they will need to be up beat and appropriate for all age groups.

I will need about 15, so fire away.

Thanks
 
Anything used in the NBA 2ak soundtracks. Teenagers will associate these songs with hoops.
There's a bunch of older hip hop songs, but I can't really get any of them to go from my brains to finger tips. Lol

Skee Lo - I wish
Quad City DJ's - Spacejam
R Kelly - I Believe I can Fly (from Spacejam)
Alan Parson Project - Sirius (The Bulls Intro music when Jordan one all the titles)
Kurtis Blow - Basketball
Michael Jackson - Jam
LMFAO - Shots (loop the shots part)
Flo Rida - My House
Public Enemy - He Got Game
Brother Bones - Sweet Georgia Brown

Interesting question. I have never had to pick basketball songs for an event. (I also have not had to pick baseball songs or football songs or any other sport songs). The first song that comes to mind is "Forever" by Drake, Eminem, Kanye, and Lil Wayne, if you can find a clean version of it. All the other songs that are coming to mind are songs that were wrestlers' entrance music back in the day, so wrong sport. I look forward to seeing which songs other people choose.
 
Those are great suggestions, Stevie Ray. I especially like "I Wish" and "Jam." I had totally forgotten about "Sirius," even though I think I knew that it was a popular entrance music song in lots of sports.
 
Add a couple more here:

Basketball by Little Bow Wow
Above The Rim by Bell Biv Devoe
Basketball by Curtis Blow
Just Say Hey If You Feel Alright by Crystal Waters
NCAA Basketball Theme
What Is Love Medley by Jock Jams (used by our local college team during pregame warmup. Kicks booty.)

and I cannot believe no one has mentioned the most famous basketball track of all times....

Sweet Georgia Brown, theme of the Harlem Globetrotters. Best version I've found is from the Bobby Morganstein CD sets. I use an endless loop version for the "Great Hoop Shootout" game at mitzvahs.
